Late one night when the wind was still
Daddy brought the baby to the window sill
To see a bit of heaven shoot across the sky
The one and only time Daddy saw it fly
It came from the east just as bright as a torch
The neighbors had a party on their porch
Daddy rocked the baby, Mother said "amen"
When Halley came to visit in nineteen ten
{instrumental}
Now back then Jackson was a real small town
{instrumental}
Now Daddy told the baby sleeping in his arms
To dream a little dream of a comet's charms
It came from the east, just as bright as a torch
She saw it in the sky from her daddy's porch
As heavenly sent as it was back then
When Halley came to Jackson in nineteen ten
{instrumental}
Late one night when the wind was still
{instrumental}
